Go to Sarapiqui!

I came to the Sarapiqui Conservation Learning Center to do action based research as a part of a thesis . It turned into a program for kids and youth focusing on ICT and English skills for community development. I truly enjoyed working with these kids and teaching them computer skills and organizing discussions around issues such as poverty and human rights. We also had a lot of fun as we incorporated creative activities and sports too. These kids will always be in my heart, and it was hard to leave knowing that there are still so many needs in the community. The area is small and safe, and it gives one an excellent opportunity to interact with locals. The Rainforest is beautiful and Yazmin the assistant director is very supportive of the volunteers. I would highly recommend volunteering with kids and youth at SCLC, so go to Sarapiqui :)
